What lessons can be learned from the management practices in other regions and nations to inform allocation strategies for shifting stocks along the U.S. Northeast and Mid-Atlantic coasts? On Tuesday, April 23, the Lenfest Ocean Program hosted a webinar featuring Dr. Andrew Pershing and his colleagues from the Gulf of Maine Research Institute to discuss their project characterizing different fishery allocation systems from around the world and their potential for application in the U.S.
The recording for the one-hour webinar is now available online and can be accessed on the Lenfest Ocean Program website.
